• Sometimes due to the electrical complexities of subwoofers and the interaction with the room, THX recommends setting the level and the 

distance of the subwoofer manually.

• Sometimes due to interaction with the room, you may notice irregular results when setting the level and/or distance of the main speakers. If 

this happens, THX recommends setting them manually.

• Please note that any THX main speakers should be set to Small (80 Hz). If you set up your speakers using Auto Setup, please make sure
